Just as a comment: As to how one would get 1.7Gigs on an A3000 it is
true that it isn't possible with the current set of boards and chips
available, but one should keep in mind that not too long ago Commodore
showed a proto-type 32 Meg RAM board for the A3000. They DID say that
there were no plans to bring it to market, but that doesn't mean some
off the wall third party company (like GVP who are always bringing out
amazing hardware products) won't develop the same. 

Let's see.....18 Megs on the motherboard plus 32 Megs on a card times
4 possible slots = 146 Megs of RAM. Not quite 1.7 Gigs, but it's a
start.

What would I do with 146 Megs of RAM? I dunno, but I'd have a lot of
fun finding out.  ;-)
